“Medium-sized” Winthrop University in South Carolina “is a public university, which is reflected in its diverse student body, but it has a private university feel in terms of the small size of classes, the caliber of the faculty, and the beauty of the campus.” There are many programs and options here. Business and education majors are especially popular. As at most schools, professors are “hit or miss.” Some are “almost never available.” Many others are “easy to approach” and “passionate about what they teach.” “I’ve wanted to clap at the end of classes before because they’ve been so phenomenal,” gloats one student. Complaints include registration. “Getting the classes you need is a struggle.” Some of the required general education courses “could be thrown away,” too. One student tells us, “the only downfall to our school is financial aid. Almost everyone I know, including myself, has had problems with them.” Administrators “like to dance around questions without actually answering them,” and “it is very common for students to be passed (circularly) from one department back to another when trying to resolve an administrative problem.”
